All About Neptune:

Neptune is the planet of fairy tales & day dreams. All things mystical, spiritual, delusional belong to planet Neptune in astrology. Neptune in the natal chart shows how you seek spiritual development and the house Neptune resides in will show the area of life where you are more prone to experience illusions. Neptune is the eighth planet from the Sun, both an ice and a gas giant. Being so far away, it was discovered only in 1846. It got its name after Neptunus, the Roman god of the sea, who is the equivalent of the Greek Poseidon. The glyph of Neptune in astrology is the simplified trident of Neptune: ♆. (The funny thing is, if you look at the symbol better, it can also be an aerial for receiving signals of divine inspiration). 

Neptune is an outer, slow moving planet. It's takes 165 years to orbit the Sun (two human life times). This also means that Neptune stays in the same zodiac sign for years! Approximately 10-12 years in each sign. Large groups of people share the same Neptune sign in their charts. The outer planets (Uranus, Neptune & Pluto) are also called "generational planets", because their effects are more pronounced on society as a whole. Neptune is associated with the zodiac sign Pisces in astrology. The fish coincide with Neptune, as they both represent the same qualities, which is why Neptune is its ruling planet. Pisces and Neptune are the natural sign and ruler of the 12th house in a natal chart, which is perhaps one of the most mysterious & misunderstood houses out of all. Neptune is detriment in the sign of Virgo (Mercury), exalted in Cancer (Moon) and in fall in Capricorn (Saturn). All the outer planets are connected to an inner planet. Neptune is the higher octave of Venus, the planet of love and beauty. Neptune represents divine inspiration and unconditional love. It is similar to Venus, but Venus is about connecting and loving on a personal level, while Neptune is about divine spiritual compassion & UNCONDITIONAL love.

There are many things associated with Neptune in astrology. As the natural ruler of the 12th house, its no surprise that this planet is mystical and somewhat hard to understand from our mundane world. You just have to accept this haziness, and accept that there will always be a link with the unknown when it comes to this planet/sign/12 house. Neptune is the planet of divine inspiration. Its the muse you are waiting for to bless your work. If this planet is emphasized in your natal chart (meaning if you have a lot of Pisces or 12th house placements, or a prominent Neptune), you are most likely have some form of artistic talent. The 12th house, Pisces & Neptune are all important when talking about the creative arts, because they are the source of great ideas and inspiration. Some of the worlds greatest inventors have strong Pisces energy in their chart, such as Nikola Tesla & Albert Einstein (I will post their charts below). The element Water is associated with creative talents and emotions in astrology. Pisces, the sign Neptune rules is a water sign by element, and if its emphasized in your chart, it gifts you with extreme intuition. Mystical Neptune is an endless source of creativity which you can tap into. Neptune and Pisces represent a fantasy world full of magic that you can bring over into this world and transform into a piece of art. Music is traditionally associated with Neptune in astrology. This planet is the higher octave of Venus, and adds its magic to the world of music. Neptune also governs acting, which is another form of illusion. It recreates a scene that doesn't exist in the real world. Theater, movies and T.V. are all ruled by Neptune in astrology. This planet is also prominent in the charts of poets. Neptune aspects to planet Mercury is a frequent indicator of literary talent.
